Question 5- How did you attract/address your audience?
The author conducted a questionnaire to understand what their target audience wanted from the magazine. The results showed that many readers wanted to see features on Ben Howard and The Vaccines. As a result, the author featured them prominently on the front cover. Additionally, the article topics inside were influenced by audience feedback. To attract this audience, the front cover masthead uses the term "Cult" to represent the independent and individual nature of indie music fans. The model's clothing style on the cover projects a quirky individuality that appeals to indie music enthusiasts. The inclusion of a guitar also connects to many indie bands that incorporate acoustic guitar into their music.

Use, develop & challenge conventions

Evaluation q 1
This document summarizes the conventions used and challenged in the design of an indie folk music magazine. It follows several conventions of real magazines, such as using a Z formation on the front cover to guide the reader's eye, and including puffs and pugs to entice readers. However, it also challenges some conventions by having a very busy contents page unlike typical indie magazines, and including an editor's note. Throughout the magazine, it maintains a consistent house style with a limited color scheme and set of fonts.
Media evaluation question 2
The document discusses the design choices made for a music magazine to target a young audience. It focuses on the artists featured, the images used, and the language employed. The artists - Usher, Lil Wayne, and 50 Cent - make music for the target demographic. Front cover and interior images of a model in dark clothing on a black backdrop were chosen to represent the genre and engage readers. Informal language is used throughout to make the content enjoyable and accessible for young people. Diversity and inspiration are also priorities in appealing to the target audience.
(Final evalution)
The document discusses the creation of a magazine cover and contents page based on conventions from real music magazines like Vibe and Kerrang. Key points:
1) The layout, colors, fonts, and positioning of elements on the magazine cover and contents page follow conventions from real magazines to appear authentic and appeal to the target audience.
2) Larger images and text are used to draw attention to the main artist or article being featured.
3) Topics, images, and styles were selected carefully to represent and appeal to the social group of London teens.
Presentation1
This magazine targets 17-27 year olds interested in indie/rock music. To represent this group, the magazine includes a music festival competition, focuses on artists who play instruments like guitar, and features models dressed in clothing found at stores like Urban Outfitters. While some stereotypes of the genre include substance use, the magazine avoids explicit images and focuses more on the music and fashion to represent its target audience. Photos are taken at locations this group would visit, like homes and outdoor areas, with lighting, poses, and language designed to engage younger readers interested in indie culture.
How Did You Attract Your Audience
The document discusses various ways the author addressed and attracted their audience for a magazine spread on hip hop artist Jazz Ricketts. Some techniques included:
1) Using direct eye contact and dialogue in photos to create intimacy.
2) Including props like jewelry, headphones and microphones to establish the hip hop genre.
3) Using slang terms in articles that the target audience would understand and relate to.
4) Employing vibrant colors like green that would stand out and match the theme to grab attention.
Evaluation Question 1
This document summarizes how the media product both adheres to and challenges conventions of real music magazines. It follows conventions such as using a masthead in the top third, featuring artists on the cover and contents pages, and having a column-based layout. However, it also challenges conventions by having an overlapping masthead, atypical color palette, and images that don't use direct address. The double-page spread challenges conventions by depicting the artist in a long shot looking to the side rather than a close-up. Overall, the media product draws from real magazines like Q and NME while also adapting conventions to better suit its intended indie music audience.
Question Two.
The document discusses how a magazine represents the social group of alternative music fans through its visuals. Models in the magazine are dressed in the typical style of that genre - skinny jeans, doc martens, plaid shirts - to appeal to the target audience. Photos on the front cover and contents page feature an 18-year-old male model in this style of dress, posing casually to convey the relaxed attitude of that demographic. While some may see focusing on appearance as shallow, the magazine aims to provide a lighthearted read for its young, music and fashion focused audience.
Evaluation Presentation
The document summarizes an evaluation of a student's music magazine project.

Text will range from formal to informal using colloquial language to engage audiences. Audience needs will be considered through varying article formats and a questionnaire.
Eval 2
The document discusses choices made in photography and language for a music magazine targeted towards rock and punk social groups.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

Evaluation Q5
- 1. 5. How did you attract/ address your audience ? • I have attracted my audience though various ways, firstly by using a various of pictures, and had some images related to the content to attract the target audience .The pictures I used give hints on what genre of music my magazine is and what is mainly featured just by looking at the main image. On one of the cover lines, the colours used were different from the rest (which went with the colour scheme), I did this because the colour connotes topics about the artist relates to content in the magazine. I showed signs or stickers like ‘ Exclusive review’ meaning this would be the only magazine that has that interview so it would attract people to look in and read; this is a form of advertisement of content within the magazine.
- 2. • I used myself as the model of the main image because I represent the target audience. The layout also attracts the audience in different ways such as the sky line at the top of the front cover because readers normally read from the top to the bottom. The article in the double page spread is split into a column and a half to look like novel and magazine page. I did this so that the readers can read it in a different way, I broke the codes and conventions of professional music magazines. Overall the way I have organised my images and text, should draw people in I used very bright and dominant colour scheme so it stands out as a magazine when among other magazines also included content for females so that the magazine so that the audience isn't patriarchal. The content I came up with are social issues within the music industry that would be interesting.
- 3. • The mast head is used to attract the audience due to the three – dimensional looked I have represented through the front cover of the magazine. the mast head also address to the audience that the magazine is related to the up coming form being a teenager into becoming a young adult. I used the colours on the magazine front cover to portray the lifestyle of the artist’s represented in the magazine. I did this to attract the audience to the magazine making them feel part of this universe of celebrities, making them aspire to be like the celebrities characterized in my magazine .I used the relevance of the magazine to catch the attention of the targeted audience, I used the language and lifestyle to address the audience. Using them to attract the audience into buying the magazine.
